A spatially explicit decision support model for restoration of forest bird habitat.
The historical area of bottomland hardwood forest in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley has been reduced by >75%. Agricultural production was the primary motivator for deforestation; hence, clearing deliberately targeted higher and drier sites. Remaining forests are highly fragmented and hydrologically altered, with larger forest fragments subject to greater inundation, which has negatively affect...

Although the relevé method was developed by plant ecologists to classify vegetation, ornithologists have begun to use the method for bird-habitat studies, sometimes including modifications to better sample structural features of a h...
متن کاملBird assemblages in a Malagasy forest-agricultural frontier: effects of habitat structure and forest cover
Increasing global human population and per-capita food consumption are expected to exacerbate the already massive agricultural footprint in tropical ecosystems. Madagascar is home to exceptional levels of biodiversity and is in the midst of severe land-use change, mostly driven by slash-and-burn, smallholder agriculture. Understanding the consequences of these agricultural practices for Malagas...

متن کاملMigratory Strategy and Seasonal Patterns of Bird Diversity in Relation to Forest Habitat
Ci.—Aspen stands and riparian areiis are important to breeding birds in ihe southwestern U.S. because they provide tesources such as food atid shelter. We investigated how this importance varies throughoul the year for bolh resident and migratory birds. We sampled hitds in 96 sites, half in small isolated aspen stands and half in the ponderosa pine forest in northern Ariirona thiring tlie sumiu...
